Talking It Over
In talking things over you will often find
That the knots and tangles all unwind.
In talking things over it might well be
That a different viewpoint you will see.
In talking things over you get a fresh light
On the whole situation, the wrong and the right.
Thrashing it out in a friendly tone
Is better than thinking it out alone.
So don’t go around with a harboured grudge.
Don’t take a side and refuse to budge.
For there is no grievance that can’t be healed
And there is no problem that will not yield…
